Twenty four hours before the World Athlete of the Year gala, Brigid Kosgei has hinted on her world marathon record being cut down to 2:12 with proper pace making. Speaking during a press conference here in Monaco, Brigid said records are set to be broken and she doesn't expect her record to last long. She also said she can go under 2:12 if she can be offered the kind of backing world men's record holder Eliud kipchoge had in Vienna recently. The mother of twins Faith Chepchumba and Brian Kibet said she prepared well for Chicago and the record did come as a surprise. Brigid who is also the London Marathon champion also confirmed that she will race at the Olympic Games next year.
